"Zhiyuan, I appreciate your kindness. Thank you."
Yang Derong smiled bitterly and shook his head. "To tell you the truth, it would be a lie to say that I don't want your position, but some things are destined. A few days ago, when I heard that you were going to be transferred, I was tempted and moved. I was also very confident, but at this time, the Twin Temple Town caught fire, and the fire negated all my hopes. Don't you think this is fate? Sometimes you have to submit to fate. Forget it, forget it, I don't want to fight anymore. "
Zhang Zhiyuan knew about the fire in the Shuangmiao Town. He was very lucky that he was studying in the capital at this time and escaped the disaster. If he was at home, it would definitely affect the transfer. While he was glad, he was also quite scared.
It was the same fire, but the fate of the two people went to two extremes. Was the Heavens really unfair? When people were frustrated, they often pushed everything they missed to the non-existent God to escape and shirk responsibility. In fact, fate was in the hands of individuals, and only they could change their fate. If Yang Derong had prepared for a rainy day, prepared enough materials, and used the right method, the fire could have been avoided completely. Even if it happened, as long as he was not afraid in the face of danger, turned the tide, and turned the bad thing into a good thing, it would not have become the situation today. However, time could not be turned back, and everything was too late.
Zhang Zhiyuan comforted him. "Old Yang, I am also responsible for this fire. I shouldn't let you bear it alone. Later, I will report to Secretary Qin to see if he can revoke your punishment. "
"Forget it, it's just a warning. It's no big deal." Yang Derong said, "I know you are doing it for my own good, but I really don't want to fight this time. I'm a little powerless. Let's wait until next year. If the conditions allow, I will work hard. If not, then so be it. Hehe. "
Zhang Zhiyuan did not want to dwell on this issue too much. The more he said, the more depressed he became. He changed the topic. "Old Yang, I have to remind you. When we accompanied Mayor Lin to the Shuangmiao Coal Mine last time, I found a lot of safety hazards. The technicians are not professional, and there are even exposed wires. You have to pay attention to this and make great efforts to urge the rectification. If we don't take precautions, it may cause irreparable damage that day. "
"En, thanks for the reminder." Yang Derong nodded and said, "After that, I will arrange for Gao Bowen to conduct a thorough inspection of the coal mines one by one. As long as the safety standards are not up to standard, they will have to stop production for rectification."
"Yes." Zhang Zhiyuan continued, "Also, I've always wanted to change the face of the county town, but I'm short of funds and don't dare to start. With the recovery of the coal market this year, it was estimated that the fiscal revenue would achieve a historic breakthrough. If possible, I would like you to carry out this project. I heard that you brought back a city construction project some time ago. This is a good sign. "
"Mm." Yang Derong said, "Actually, I have the same idea. If my finances allow it, I will consider it. "
"Also." Zhang Zhiyuan had too many unfulfilled wishes, so he eagerly said, "Nanyang's transportation has always been a shortcoming. I hope you can consider this issue as well."
Yang Derong felt that Zhang Zhiyuan was too talkative. How could Zhang Zhiyuan tell him how to develop? That would make him seem incompetent. He reluctantly nodded his head.
After chatting for a long time, Yang Derong looked at his watch and said, "Zhiyuan, I have to go to the city later, so I can't chat with you any longer. No matter how far you go, we have fought in the same trench after all. Come back often when you have time. "
"I will."
Yang Derong stood up and was about to leave, but Zhang Zhiyuan suddenly stopped him and said, "Old Yang, I still have a request."
Yang Derong turned his head and looked at Zhang Zhiyuan in surprise. He said, "What is it? Say it. "
"After I leave, please take care of Yiwei." Zhang Zhiyuan had been holding back this question for a long time, but he did not know how to say it. It was useless to say it lightly, but if he said it seriously, people would think that he did not trust him. It was better not to say it. But if he did not say it, he always felt that something was missing. Finally, he summoned up the courage to say it.
Yang Derong was stunned. He thought for a moment and said, "Aren't you taking him with you?"
"Not for the time being, and maybe not in the future."
"Oh." Yang Derong seemed to understand something and said, "Don't worry, he is now a member of the Standing Committee. I know what to do." After saying that, he opened the door and left.
Zhang Zhiyuan sat in front of his desk in a daze, his mind in a mess. Yang Derong's last sentence was as good as not saying it. To be honest, there was no person or thing that he was reluctant to leave in Nanyang County, but Lu Yiwei was the only one he could not let go. He could imagine Lu Yiwei's situation after he left, but what could he do?
The two of them had worked together for more than a year, and they had quite a tacit understanding. Moreover, this person treated each other with sincerity, was chivalrous, and was a righteous man. When he was being punished, the others were watching the fire from the other side of the river, hesitating and not daring to act rashly. Only he was moving up and down, taking a seemingly insignificant shortcut, but the effect was twice the result with half the effort. Not only did he help him get through the difficulties, but he also took advantage of it to become the Secretary of the County party committee. If it were not for his persistence, perhaps he would have been set up. This was something that Zhang Zhiyuan would never forget.
In addition, he saved his daughter, Chuchu. If it were not for him, Chuchu would still be curled up in her own world, full of fear, like a frightened bird. Now, although his daughter's psoriasis was not completely eradicated, it was much better than before. She dared to face a new life, re-entered the school, and integrated into the students.
There were many, many more things. Zhang Zhiyuan clearly remembered every one of them. But the more he thought about it, the heavier his heart became. He had given her so much, and it was difficult to bring her to a new height. Because of this, he was afraid to face Lu Yiwei. But running away could not solve the problem, and in the end, he had to face it head-on.
During the time he was studying in Beijing, he had been thinking about how to properly arrange for Lu Yiwei. Logically speaking, giving him the position of a deputy division chief was already very generous, but he still felt that he owed him something ….
He had to face what he had to face. He picked up the phone on his desk, thought again and again, and dialed a number.
"Where are you?"
Lu Yiwei quickly said. "Secretary Zhang, I am at Director Dong's house now. I will be back soon."
"Oh." He had also heard about Dong Guoping's condition and said. "Then wait for me. I will go and take a look."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Yiwei told the dying Dong Guoping the good news. Unexpectedly, Dong Guoping immediately opened his eyes, stretched out his dry fingers, and said in a weak voice. "Help … me … up …"
The tears in his family had already dried up. His wife wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and helped the skinny Dong Guoping up to lean against the bed.
Zhang Zhiyuan came with some things. When he saw Dong Guoping's condition, his face was solemn. His wife made room for him to sit down. After sitting down, he held Dong Guoping's hand tightly and said. "Director Dong, you are tired."
Dong Guoping tried to say something, but he did not have the strength to do so. He said in a weak voice. "I have to go."
Zhang Zhiyuan heard this and felt sad. "You can't go. I still have to wait for you to come back to work for me. You still have a lot of work to do." He felt guilty for Dong Guoping. He did not help Dong Guoping during the selection of the Deputy Mayor, and he felt guilty for a long time. But the Deputy Mayor was chosen by the party representatives, and he cannot disobey.
A complicated smile appeared on Dong Guoping's face. He shook his head weakly and said while gasping for breath, "Wait … for me …"
Lu Yiwei saw the situation was not good and quickly gave Zhang Zhiyuan a look. Zhang Zhiyuan immediately stood up. "Have a good rest. Come back to work after you recover, okay?"
Dong Guoping closed his eyes and nodded.
Zhang Zhiyuan called his wife out of the room and asked. "What do you need the County party committee to do?"
Dong Guoping's wife shook her head. "He is already in this state, and there is no hope for him. Dong Guoping has always been obsessed with being an official, and his biggest regret is not being able to be the Deputy Mayor. If possible, can you cooperate with us to perform a play to fulfill his wish? "
"No problem." Zhang Zhiyuan agreed without hesitation. "What do you need us to do?"
"Isn't there a letter of appointment for the Deputy Mayor? Can you make a fake one for him? Just let him take a look at it. I beg you. "
"Okay. I will ask Fan Zhongming to send the letter over."
Zhang Zhiyuan left Dong Guoping's house and went straight to the County People's Congress building. After discussing with Fan Zhongming, Zhang Zhiyuan is willing to make a fake one for Dong Guoping. Fan Zhongming immediately arranged for someone to prepare the letter of appointment and sent it to Dong Guoping's house. Dong Guoping was so excited when he saw the letter of appointment. He knew it was fake, but he was very happy. He hugged the certificate tightly and kept stroking the gilded words on it.
Zhang Zhiyuan also sent Dong Guoping condolences in the name of the County party committee and the county government. Whether it is useful or not, at least his conscience is not bad.
It was already noon after dealing with Dong Guoping's matter. Zhang Zhiyuan and Lu Yiwei went to their usual place, the Veteran's Fishing Port, for lunch. At the dining table, the two did not discuss the transfer, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After three rounds of drinks, Zhang Zhiyuan suddenly said, "Yiwei, are you free recently?"
"No."
"That's good. I haven't traveled for a long time. Why don't we go out and relax together? "
Lu Yiwei was very interested in Zhang Zhiyuan's proposal and quickly said, "Okay, where do you want to go?"
"Uh …" Zhang Zhiyuan thought for a long time and said, "Why don't we go to Tibet?"
"Just the two of us?"
"Yes."
"How far can we go?"
"We'll leave after lunch."
"Ah?" Lu Yiwei was a little panicked by Zhang Zhiyuan's sudden decision and said, "Can we make it in time?"
Zhang Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Aren't you very powerful, Lu Yiwei? How can this small matter trouble you?"
Lu Yiwei smiled embarrassedly and said, "Okay, I'll find someone to book the ticket now."
